Aphasia (pronounced uh-fey-zhuh) is a condition caused by injury to the brain and affects a person’s ability to communicate. It is most often the result of stroke or traumatic brain injury. People with aphasia may have difficulty expressing themselves when speaking, difficulty understanding the speech of others, and difficulty reading and writing.

Starting off again after severe illness.
Thank you.

    It quite surprised me the progress.
    I bought some of that prime but can't see it doing anything with the water change...mind you like a typical Geordie always in a rush.
    Don't want to give a running commentary of my holidays but it's either so many days of holidays or so many days til I get back to the tank! Lol
    Only kidding its nice to spend quality time with my daughter.

    enjoy your special time your wean :) bestest times ever :)

    the prime detoxifys the ammonia and nitrite to a non poison form, not sure if I explained that very well, you will still get readings for them if you have them but they are harmless to any fish :)

    I like wales, when I win the lottery I'm going to buy a few acres in rural wales or up north in scotland, I really can't stand cities anymore.

    And you'll all be invited! As long as you behave of course.

    Lol my tiny head got it now!
    I was more concentrating on the chlorine n nothing else.
    My 27.5ltr water change is Sussed into what I empty into and then worked out the amount of prime to add from the dose age from the bottle.then using the same measuring technique refill.
    I'm hoping that my readings will be at an acceptable level to introduce the hair grass, java and the vallis.
    Got the fert balls already to distribute evenly so they all get the benefit.
    The java is gonna be fun as I'm thinking of using the thread method.
    Before I forget what temp should I be looking at for the intro of the plants as I've forgot what I have it set at now? :(
    Thx again
